The meme, the man, the legend Keith “The Roaring Kitty” Gill is back online and in full swing following the recent bullish movements of GameStop. After a long period of silence, Keith announced a livestream due to take place today, June 7 2024. There was no other information shared apart from what’s in the screenshot below. Upon simply announcing this, the $GME stock skyrocketed over 50% in just a matter of hours and closed on June 6 at just under $48. What’s fascinating here, is what is left unsaid. During the meme stock craze back in 2019–2021 Roaring Kitty (aka DeepFuckingValue on Reddi ..read more

Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) is one of those things that when you first hear about it, you can’t quite wrap your head around just how powerful this technology is. FHE is a type of encryption that allows computations to be performed on encrypted data, without ever needing to decrypt it. This might sound like magic, but it’s a real technology that’s set to revolutionize how we handle data privacy. I first learned about this when I reached out to Zama, a cutting-edge cryptography company working to make FHE into a new Internet standard. The concept was so exciting to explore that I sat d ..read more

Algorithmic trading is something that I’m incredibly excited about. So much so that I’ve spent the last 3 years building an algorithmic crypto trading platform alongside a small team of developers. After all this work, I’m supper happy to say that out trading platform — AESIR is live and growing! The app is still very young and likely missing some features, but we’ve seen decent growth in the last few months and that makes me very excited about the future of Aesir. Algorithmic trading is an iterative process that consists of identifying and building a strategy, measure the results, and then ..read more

If you’re familiar with the r/CryptoCurrency subreddit, you’ve probably heard the phrase the phrase “inverse r/cc strategy”. This is very similar to the inverse Cramer strategy, in that it aims to place trades using the inverted sentiment of the Cryptocurrency subreddit. Basically, if the subreddit says that Solana sucks — we want to go all in. The collective voice of the subreddit has been so consistently wrong, that even members of the sub are using the aggregated sentiment to buy coins the echochamber swears they’re sacrilege. Doge, Solana, ShibaInu and Worldcoin are just some of coins t ..read more

This is a milestone that I’m quite proud of and I’m excited to share this with you all. I’ve been working on an algo trading platform alongside a small team of developers for about 3 years now. Between us we’ve put together the foundation for what we believe to be the future of investment and wealth management. It’s a big vision and there’s a lot of work ahead of us, but we’ve recently pushed an update that gives users a lot more control over their exit strategy. An exit strategy is how and when you’re planning to exit the market. An exit strategy should limit your losses and be a ..read more

There is currently widespread news of a large number of Solana wallets being drained due to unauthorized access. The alleged attack targets any wallet that may have been connected to a dApp, and according to CompendiumFi, it is recommended to disconnect your wallet from any dApp at this current time (time of writing 29/03/2024 13:18pm GMT) Although the source of the attack is still to be identified, the current narrative points to BONKbot, a Telegram bot capable of executing trades on the Solana network, as the catalyst of the exploit. Developers associated with the project have denied any ..read more

Crypto markets have been pumping hard lately and the hype is strong once more. At the time of writing BTC is just shy of $65,000 and about to break to a new all time high. There’s never more opportunity in a market than in times of high volatility, and boy did the crypto markets over the last couple of weeks. How many times have you seen a Godcandle and thought, damn, I wish I traded that? That thought is what got me into algorithmic trading when I started building my own trading bots years ago. It kind of all evolved from that point and for the last 3 years I’ve been working alongside a sm ..read more

True adoption for cryptocurrency and blockchain is still pretty far away. Bitcoin as legal tender is a step in the right direction but the real adoption will take place when this ecosystem gets less confusing, and more importantly — less fragmented. The state of crypto in 2024 is that there are thousands of chains, with specific applications built on top of them, but very few of them actually communicate with each other. For an outsider, it’s a siloed and confusing mess. This space desperately needs tools that connect chains together in a way that the end user doesn’t have to worry about wha ..read more

I’ve been in the cryptocurrency space since early 2017 — but I’ve always had an interest in technology and finance so it was an incredible discovery for me when I first stumbled on this space. I’ve seen the world become increasingly more monopolised with a handful of organisations controlling most of the media, computing, and electronics, while the rest of us are distracted by politics that are meant to divide us. I’ve seen the Internet transform from a free and open space to an advert-ridden mess of censored echochambers where the Terms of Service dictate ideological narratives. So natural ..read more

I recently had a fascinating conversation with Christoph Jentzsch, a former core developer of Ethereum and author of The DAO. Christoph was there during the launch of Ethereum and the rise and fall of The DAO and it was amazing to hear him talk about it. I also learned a lot about the Ethereum lore that I wasn’t aware of. Listen to the Podcast on Spotify | Apple Music | Youtube Christoph’s introduction to blockchain was somewhat accidental. Coming from a background in theoretical physics, his search for cheap GPUs led him to Bitcoin mining. This curiosity paved the way for his involvement w ..read more
